Microsoft store "Get updates" button does nothing; unable to update any apps

Question

Currently trying to update an app via the Microsoft store. The update has been out for a few weeks at this point, and it hasn't automatically detected the update yet. I have tried to make use of the "Get updates" button, which appears to begin to load, however, it will stay like this until I try to click off, or if I wait long enough, it will just return to the normal "Get updates" button.

• I have already tried reinstalling the ms store, and tried a lot of the fixes found in this post:

And yet still nothing.

• Windows 11 is fully updated.

I've tried searching around for answers, but nothing has worked so far. Any ideas?
